PFAS score
Char-Broil · Grill & Oven Mats
Rural King Char-Broil Porcelain Grill Topper
Lower-concern grill topper; porcelain coating avoids nonstick Teflon-type coating/PFAS risks, but brand discloses nothing.
Char-Broil's porcelain grill topper uses a ceramic-based coating rather than Teflon-family coating nonstick, which eliminates the primary PFAS pathway in cookware. The brand provides no PFAS statement, but porcelain itself is not a known PFAS delivery mechanism.

What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 78% confidence. It is not a lab result.
No independent PFAS lab test is on record for this exact product. A lab test could move the score in either direction.
The brand has not made a specific, verifiable PFAS-free statement, so part of this score reflects that missing disclosure rather than a confirmed material.
Formulations and coatings change between production runs. Always check the current label before buying.
